Deep Trouble: Excavator Struggles To Finish Job we may need some Floats!

[@ronnieferguson5706]

Man behind the scenes decision to leave the trees was the right decision I have to agree with him

[@Crewsy]

Cedar trees are just mosquito bushes.

[@Manoffire260]

@@Crewsy- cedars are well know natural bug repellents…🤨

[@TheAmpair]

Should have painted 'em though. ;-)

[@billvandorn5332]

​@@CrewsyWhy are they mosquito bushes? I know mosquitoes like standing water and Tall Grass

[@Crewsy]

@@billvandorn5332​​⁠ Next time you’re near one give it a shake. Cedars are hiding places for mosquitoes.

When my dad operated the Cat 245b back in Oregon. That machine had a 4 or 5 yard bucket and it took about 5 or 6 buckets to fill the Euclid off-road truck. When dad operated the Bucyrus Erie 88b shovel front, about 3 buckets would fill a Euclid truck. This video brings back memories as a kid.

Great job! I am so glad we don't have smellavision!!😂 Thanks for sharing 👍 😊 A very nice pond! Poor drag line! 😢 Driving it self.

[@billvandorn5332]

I was thinking the same thing foolishly thinking that I wished I had smell-o-vision and then I realized no, that's a mistake

[@donnal.oglesby4806]

enjoyed the video, Mike, Aaron's choice to leave the ress was a good one BTW. You really NEED to get some heaters fixed, repaired or installed in your equiptment!. For a few minutes, while the 120 was in the water, thought she was gonna go in completely since the weaight on the back was swining in the water. Glad you didn't go for a swim. LOVE LOVE LOVE that Drag line, and so happy to see videos of her and you able to use her, instead of her just collecting dust.

[@staceyacre]

I’m really impressed with the Bluetooth driver mode for the old dragline. Nice to see old technology working with new technology!!

[@leer-winnobbeefarms2131]

Another great video! The Ole Dragline sure gives us all a real appreciation for hydraulics!

[@stevencroon]

And the antics continue for the dirty duo lol, best show around enjoy!!😄😄😄

[@madebylife]

Dirty Duo!! 😂

[@pierreballou5438]

That huge rock worked perfect to cover that hole and made a perfect addition between those two cedar trees.

[@cliffblackburn8102]

Come on crash lighting ⚡ !! It doesn't look that cold 🥶 in that truck lolol 🤣 come on DP give the guy some heat!!🔥 He does do a great job tailgating the gravel!! Have a great day lighting!! ⚡

[@klsc8510]

The Mud Brothers and the Dragline live to star again. Next episode, The Revenge of Gunner!

[@laceitup1]

That piece of land sure has changed over the years! Great spot for a private fishing hole. You and Aaron are sure fun to hangout with😉

[@baronclime6423]

Mike, tell 'em what my old grand pap used to tell me. "Boy if you're cold you aren't working hard enough"!

[@RaymondBertin]

And if your sweating your working to hard.

[@marymigliore3396]

What would you do without Aaron !! He is THE MAN !! I LOVE AARON !!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@cliffblackburn8102]

Good morning DP and mbts .. another great video and coffee ☕🌞✌🏻💯💚🌱⚡💨💨

[@kylesmith8769]

That follow me feature on the dragline is pretty awesome! 😂

[@denismcardle9568]

With DP slinging mud and Gunner waiting for revenge I think Aaron is in trouble 😅😅

[@Losttoanyreason]

I have a feeling that Gunner's revenge will have a lot of input and help from DP.🤣

[@americanpatriot2.06]

More dredging, more rocks, more mudslinging and water splashing! Aaron taking several for the team with those great closeup shots! Mike's new boat ramp and shallow water way gets a thumbs up for the DP Crew! The dragline is need of more speed, if possible. But the old school cruise control sure makes it easier on the operator! 🤣🤣 Definitely need to get it back to its "spot" so Old Glory can fly high and proud for Derby, Indiana! Good to see "Crash" putting in work with the dump truck!

[@PhotoArtBrussels]

Mike, random idea; maybe putting some weld-lines on the tracks of the dragline will help a lot with traction. It is not much, but infinitely more than now. Simple, low cost and effective.

[@fransinyard891]

Good morning sunshine! Yall soo silly splashing that water on/at each other! Lol! Much love from Henderson Ga USA

[@wc4j]

guess we find out today if Hyundai main drives are sealed for submersion in water? And I've decided it's easier to work with the Capt then MBTS but the damage is less with MBTS

[@kaboom4679]

The Captain could have made two trucks with that pile of metal , lol .

[@ralphups7782]

Dirt Perfect sir, the pond turned out to look very good. hope there is some memorable fishing session's to be had around that body of water. it's 20C inside here in London England UK. and i am quite happy spring's progression so far.

[@johnklemets1809]

good evening from down under Mike and Aaron i just love that old drag line thanks for another great video guys

[@jimmyhicks1015]

Good morning DP and Aaron

[@MySynthDungeon]

Cold morning!berrrrr!! Coffees on!Here we go! Cheers!;-)!!

[@stovebolt448]

Well Mike you guys aren't the only ones dealing with cold weather, here in eastern Oregon it's been colder than usual, when is summer ever gonna get here?" 🙃

[@46rambo49]

we don't use mats a lot but we have them (somewhere) on the lot when we need them........... but we have a squeegee and window cleaner in every piece of equipment

[@pdm1289]

That will make great channel cat, bluegill, and bass pond in a few years with a few years and a proper plan.

[@nigelhales874]

I've just watched this video one of the best great tidy up of this old quarry the volvo definitely doesn't need tailgate please be careful with drag line my late mother cousin was killed in a drag line the top was near above power lines tenable loss any way catch up soon take care micky

[@bruceknowlton8691]

You could open the windshield and we can see better. Lol 😆 thanks

[@darylb4814]

Allot of locations in Canada give the road millings away cause they are not permitted to reuse them on the roads again as they don't seem to join together as they are supposed to do after they are milled up.

[@mischef18]

Another great video from this project guys and good to see the dragline given a run too bro. Safe travels. Ken.

[@rockman531]

Howdy Mr. Dirt, The 'new' and improved fishing hole turned out quite nice! You guys did a great job! Hopefully your next job won't have any mud puddles! Thumbs up! Stay safe. Jim

[@alfredomarotta6604]

Thanks for another gooder one, mr.Dirt Perfect and MBTS. KEEP EM COMING, SIR....,always enjoyable, interesting educational and entertaining. 👍👍🍻🤙

[@Kenny-pm7qr]

When it dries out sort the rocks out and that makes great topsoil. What I did when I dredged my lake out.

[@ralphjelomono1066]

That old drag line is like a mechanical dinosaur. During operation nothing but levers flinging and cables swinging. You guys did a nice cleanup operation in the pond. Thanks for the video

[@chrisgalliher497]

I don’t care what anyone says! That dragline is a piece of art and it’s a dang good machine.

Very enjoyable video. It is nice seeing the old quarry getting gussied up.

[@leolarocque-h4e]

Love this video Mike and the Dragline move by it selft Aaron to hey Mike you should bye this place were you park the old Dragline .

[@Wolf-hd9ke]

I have no idea, but I would bet tile plowing is probably better for the bottom line, BUT I sure enjoy seeing you two building a lake. I could watch plenty of those and would love to see DP tackle a good size lake from dream to fishing! First Aaron repairing his Dad's pond, now DP adding to this lake. But I mean a piece of ground that needs a dam built with further excavating and lakecaping. You know, 20-50 acres!!! Or more. lol. 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍

[@rogerlarge4827]

Hey gunner..... don't let us down, make it err memorable.

[@cliffblackburn8102]

On the job we would zip tie a zip tie to the drive shaft of our co worker drive shaft lolol it spinning hitting off the floor board would drive them insane lmao 🤣😂

Nice job gentlemen, looks like the owner was quite pleased with the results of all the hard work. I have had the displeasure of smelling that type of slurry/mud, it is disgusting to say the least, thanks for the update,enjoyed watching.

you need one of those floating excavators they use for clearing lakes/ponds/rivers...Amphibious excavator WK 220 SLR

[@JayMcGinness574]

Going to be a nice fishing hole this summer. Maybe even a good swimming hole. Great Job as usual and tell Aaron to keep up the good work!

[@karlmckinney8469]

I smashed that like button 😊

Sub'd a bit ago and have had some late night entertainment for sure. Mike, Aaron and your company work well together, seem to have a good time poking fun at yourselves and have a great work ethic. Thank you from Canada.

rode past the store yesterday, the 210 is a beast all loaded up !

[@porkchop5389]

I think after this job Aaron should have to power wash the 210, and detail the cab

[@cathiwim]

Absolutely! Payback for Gunnar’s room! Lol

[@randycharest4507]

I ENJOYED WATCHING THE VIDEO DIRT PERFECT 😊

[@joejohnson7097]

Love your videos watching the work you do and the fun and jokes that go along with the video. You and Aaron make a great team plus now you have Crash. Thanks for the video

[@Losttoanyreason]

Boy! Aarons carrying a grudge today for getting his toy dirty. 🤣 I think he is trying to drown DP. 😱 I thought when I saw DP out in front of the drag line that Aaron was driving . Then I realized DP had put all caution to the wind and was letting it drive itself, LOL. Self driving drag line. The drag line actually ran a pretty good straight line on it's own. 👍

[@jamesfoulger2098]

Saves shovelling the tracks when you take it swimming 😁

[@garymessina1609]

Somewhat wet and smelly great video thanks Mike and Aron

[@paulmartin8212]

that old drag line is a great piece of history. Glad you saved it and can display it.

[@hydraulic-hum]

great video, enjoyed the 210 having a bit of a swim and the big ol' dragline..

[@raymanbecker]

Got yer heater right here! Speedway Motors Universal Street Rod Auxiliary Cab Heater, 12 Volt, 20,000 BTU

[@cyndikarp3368]

Pond has a much better entrance into water. There were still some big rocks this day. Going to be pretty nice with finish grading.

[@jerryc3050]

Thought we'd see MBTS get run over by the Henry the Crane!😛 Good closeup shots though. good video👌👍

[@Vickie-Bligh]

Excellent job guys. The boat ramp looks great, the dragline was fun to watch, the dredging went well. Thanks for sharing, Mike.

[@busterbailey370]

I love ur video’s keep them coming please

[@carloskawasaki656]

Another great video, always a pleasure watch your project with the dream team 👍👍👍👍

[@norman8269]

Another portion well done, when it dries up, that place will look pretty good when you guys get it all dressed up.

[@ianparker3486]

Great job DP and Aaron

[@eddiezackery4819]

Water is really hard on final drives and rollers. This could be very costly. You have a better chance when the rollers and idlers are cool to not take in water big Ed coming to you from Central City Kentucky. Have a great day Mike and Aaron.

[@rons3103]

A quarter of a million dollar machine versus a 25,000 machine. DP, I can't believe you paid a quarter of a million dollars for that drag line! 🤣🤣🤣

[@richardmartin6533]

Be very careful with your excavator, 15 full counter-clockwise rotations, and it'll unscrew itself from the tracks.

[@09FLTRMM77]

MM77 Approved 👍🏼👍🏼

[@thebear5454]

The grinding of metal against rock, the plop of nasty swamp mud and the splashing of many hundreds of gallons of brown water...topped it all off with an epic run (?) back to home base with the old Bucyrus. Life is good.

[@ralphups7782]

Good ole Bubber Dump was sitting on a few rocks back there. 5:15/57:40 i bet he was reading off a few of the scriptures during the waiting times.? i was just thinking that you could have a double as well as a fishing pond it could bring in ducks too.? 👈👺👀👀👍

[@JohnBaker-ks8rd]

Always check the inside of dryers for money, rings, necklaces, ect... Before u scrap them, i have found alot of jewlery, $1,$5, i found a $100 bill once, and the record i have is $17.87 in change alone, dryers pay off like slot machenes

[@doritleis2773]

Cold Days, then is a Work on the Lake not happy, better in the Summer! Good that the Ground is Kies and Stone, how You go with the Excavator in the Lake. Mud and Swamp ist Danger.! But You have a Friend, with Name Chris 😅😇 a Speciality for Excavator in Water 😂 You work good and make a little Yacht Port! The first Boat have the put in to rehearse. To last bring You the old Dragline on a Other Place. Long Wet's Dayd this Work, but good Work. 👍👌💪

[@philstreeter9703]

Great video. I would have liked to see you the drag line.

[@user-kr9mh5oi1q]

you can't blame aaron, he looked at the cab and thought it was empty, he couldn't see thru that window. did the people at the quary damn up the creek to form the lake or has it been there before the query?

[@billvandorn5332]

I'm surprised you don't have in your arsenal of equipment railroad ties couple together to create pads for displacement of the weight of your equipment in unstable muddy ground! This fishing hole is coming out just fine even if it takes a little time, it will come to fruition because of all of your positive affirmations to make it so! I'm curious to know what kind of fish you guys will be stocking this with?

[@jeronethompson1059]

Thanks Mike and Aaron, hopefully Aarron got his item from Capt Kleeman, looked like something he could use for the compactor.

[@tedc7714]

My experience on ramps at white river. Boats will blow the mud out of there around the ramp. The props. Keep it blown out f it's used regularly.

[@Ramona57-TX]

That was fun, stinky fun. You guys keep it lite with laughter.

[@Bman2020]

I think MBTS likes trees 🌲 unlike someone else great job on explaining the pond sure was muddy and of course some laughs as well 👍👋🇨🇦

[@robertlukacs1762]

During DOT week ( truckers nightmare week), old school trucker’s would find the most offensive smelling loads to ward off the police. I’ve found that roadkills are very effective in reducing the amount of DOT inspections. So I’m thinking that you’re lot/convenient store lot could benefit the dredging.
